Flashermac Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 A stunt driver has crashed the car used by movie secret agent James Bond into Italy's Lake Garda during filming of 007's latest movie, Quantum of Solace. The driver was delivering the iconic Aston Martin DBS to the film scene in heavy rain when he lost control around one of the lake's narrow curves. The driver was quickly rescued and taken to hospital with minor injuries. Italian TV showed the car, reportedly the only one available for use in the film, being winched out of the lake.

bust Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 "It is not known how the stunt driver lost control of the vehicle while driving to the film set on scenic Lake Garda." Gee I could make an educated guess.... :smirk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCorinthian Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 I have driven a lot of super cars and one thing I can tell you is they HATE the rain. I discovered the hard way that the top speed in a Ferrari in rain is about 55mph. After that the back end just gets away from you rather fast!

jonjon058 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Don't blame the stunt driver. He was just taking a short cut across the lake. What kind of crap Bond car was this that didn't have sub mode? That has been a standard option since the Lotus Esprit in "The Spy Who Loved Me" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
